Behavioral Intervention Components Associated With Cost-effectiveness: A Comparison of Six Domains.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To help implement behavior change interventions (BCIs) it is important to be able to characterize their key components and determine their effectiveness.

Purpose

This study assessed and compared the components of BCIs in terms of intervention functions identified using the Behaviour Change Wheel Framework (BCW) and in terms of their specific behavior change techniques (BCTs) identified using the BCT TaxonomyV1, across six behavioral domains and the association of these with cost-effectiveness.

Methods

BCIs in 251 studies targeting smoking, diet, exercise, sexual health, alcohol and multiple health behaviors, were specified in terms of their intervention functions and their BCTs, grouped into 16 categories. Associations with cost-effectiveness measured in te
